[im] Storyboards and Other Renderings for Cinema

[Sugár János]

“A Kind of Language: Storyboards and Other Renderings for Cinema” is the exhibition curated by Melissa Harris that sheds light on the complex creative process behind filmmaking by exploring storyboards and other materials intrinsic to this process such as mood boards, drawings and sketches, scrapbooks and notebooks, annotated scripts, and photography.
Set in the spaces of the Osservatorio, the project comprises more than a thousand items created from 1930 to 2024 by over 50 authors among film directors, cinematographers, visual artists, graphic designers, animators, choreographers, and other collaborators on film and video production.
Georges Méliès was one of the first film directors who engaged preparatory and detailed drawings as a way to pre-conceive the scenes of his fantasy and science fiction movies, including his masterpiece Trip to the Moon (Le voyage dans la lune, 1902). However, the storyboard’s proper origins can be traced to the early 20th century and are intertwined with the development of animation. From the 1930s, Fleischer Studios and Walt Disney Productions, and in the 1940s United Productions of America, commissioned artists to create strips of sketches and other visuals while developing a story’s narrative and characters. In the same years, storyboards became invaluable tools in creating any cinematic work, whether animated or live-action, tangible and systematic visual representations of the unfolding story. Decades later, animated projects continue to be storyboarded, as the presence of Hayao Miyazaki’s and Studio Ghibli’s preparatory drawings in the exhibition testifies.
